Railroad photograph

The ever-expanding Denver skyline is visible to the right as a loaded BNSF oil train slowly rolls east toward the west switch at Leyden. The train will briefly stop at the west switch to wait for maintenance to clear. And by briefly, we are talking less than 30 seconds! I had hoped to move to the Simms Street grade crossing for another shot, but the 30 second stop didn't give me enough time to get there.
